Tactics
Before Combat If the PCs set off the doorbell alarm in area 2c, Yippitok drinks his mutagen and an extract of falselife. Both of these are included in his stats. If he has additional time, he drinks one extract per round to increase his chances of surviving the impending invasion of his lab, beginning with expeditious retreat, then spider climb, invisibility, and shield.
During Combat If a group of at least 3 PCs are huddled together, Tok uses his stink bomb against them, especially if there are spellcasters or archers among them. If his enemies spread out, he switches to frost bombs to slow them down and prevent full attacks.
Morale When reduced below 15 hit points, Tok drinks his extract of curemoderate wounds and attempts to flee into the theater to warn his father and brother of the impending attack.

Swift Alchemy (Ex) You can construct alchemical items in half the normal time.
Throw Anything Proficient with improvised ranged weapons. +1 to hit with thrown splash weapons.
Additional Details
BombsYippitok can vary the nature of his bombs in the following manner: A frost bomb deals cold damage instead of fire damage; creatures that take a direct hit from a frost bomb are staggered on their next turn unless they succeed at a DC 16 Fortitude save. A smoke bomb deals no damage, but instead creates a cloud of thick smoke when it detonates; the cloud functions as a fog cloud, filling an area equal to twice the bomb’s splash radius for 6 rounds. A stink bomb functions as a smoke bomb, but has the effects of stinking cloud in place of fog cloud and lasts for 1 round. Only one variant bomb type may be used on any single bomb.

Bloodline Draconic
Tactics
Before Combat By the time the PCs reach the throne room, Kibizax is almost certainly alerted to their presence (either from his alarm spell in area 2c or from the sound of fighting with Yippitok) and has false life, mage armor, and stoneskin active when they arrive (included in stat block).
During Combat When combat starts, Kibizax stops concentrating on the dragon illusion (it remains an additional 2 rounds) and casts lightning bolt, hoping to get as many PCs in the aisle as possible. Then he hides behind his throne and casts invisibility. Kibizax focuses on disorienting and misleading his enemies, using invisibility, obscuring mist, and illusions of himself to disorient and misdirect enemies as much as possible. Kibizax uses his lightning bolt whenever he can get two or three enemies in its arc. Otherwise, he tries to pick off targets with scorching ray and magic missile. Above all, Kibizax plays to the kobold audience in the balconies, as he knows this is his last performance and wants to go out in style and in a way that encourages them to push for his successor to continue the war with the Pathfinder Society.
MoraleKibizax fights to the death.
Base Statistics Without the benefit of precasting any spells, Kibizax has the following statistics: AC 14, touch 13; hp 29.
